So, you can't be a mod for three months?

If you PM mith with a game of experience, you MIGHT be able to pass the Mini Normal/Open queues, but you still need the 3 months, I believe.

You see, the pace of this site is probably very different from yours. Our game play is also likely very different as well. What worked on your site will probably not work here without some serious revision. We take mafia seriously here.

Also, this is to ensure that people don't immediately /in to mod, then come when they have to mod, they aren't around anymore.

You see, MS has come up with several ways to break setups over the years. The game you want to mod may fall prey to this (the most infmous being cop + doctor). As well, we may have some roles that would work better for our community.

Breaking setups = finding loopholes. And no, you cannot say THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN until you get several people to look at it.

Just because a game is a theme does not mean it can't be balanced as well. Just post in the review thread in Mafia Discussion that you want someone to look at the setup (if you want someone with said flavour knowledge, make sure to ask for this), and you will get a second opinion from an interested reviewer, about how to fix the setup.

Also stop by the Theme Test thread in Mafia Discussion to see if there is interest.

Well, I'm just giving you suggestions. Just that, if you start modding the game, and it hasn't been reviewed, with any new ideas taken into consideration and possibly used, then the game ends up being a total flop, everyone will hate you.

I also would like to recommend the Newbie Queue, in the same area as the Open Queue, for you to get an idea of the site and it's play style.

It's happened before. Multiple times. Just please, please, if you will take ANY advice I give, take the advice in this thread.

Stop changing the subject when I get you cornered in a point.

Game breaking is frowned upon here, but it is not a bannable offense, under the "Mod leaked info, it's now public." and "It was already public information, so we should use it." clauses, but feel free to blacklist from these people, but I once again say you shouldn't if you want to fill the game.

Meh, I guess I'm tired + hungry + it's 2 am + exam week starts today for me.

As log as you don't act like an idiot/misguided troll to the posters, you would have been fine.

I suggested punishing members who don't follow the rules and banning people if things got bad enough. That's a valid suggestion, and I'm pretty sure how things are actually supposed to be here. When bullying happens, I do think a mod should step in. When you refuse or make excuses, it can only end badly and get out of control.

Uh, what rules are you talking about?

Also, I find this describes you very well.

The thing is Haylen, I know what will happen when this player gets a single vote on her. I do not want this to happen in any games I'm involved in. I tried being nice, and I consider myself a fairly patient person, but for people that blatantly go about and refuse all advice just because it isn't what they want, I have no patience for these people.

Eh, RC, it's just that I have no patience for people who waste my time.

There is also the option of choosing not to let your time be wasted, and leaving.

Grow up. I know you're 12, but still.
